Hello and welcome to This Month in Real Estate. Im Jay Papasan.
The First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit has been extended and expanded, and the details can be found in our most recent special edition.
For December, we take a look at the results the incentive had on stimulating home sales since 2008.
According to the IRS, about 1.4 million people have taken advantage of the first time homebuyer tax credit.
Not surprisingly, California ranks number one with the number of people filing a claim for the tax credit, while Alaska and Wyoming are among the states with the fewest number of claims.
But those numbers dont tell the whole story. For more, we go to Bryon Ellington. Bryon?
Bryon: Thanks, Jay.
According to the Internal Revenue Service, every state in the Union has participated in the First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit.
If we look at the results according to the total number of claims, heres how the rankings shake out:
California is number one with more than 160 thousand tax payers taking advantage of the first time home buyer tax credit.
Texas is number two with over 131 thousand.
And Florida is number three with over 105 thousand.
But when we look at the data in terms of per capita claims, or the percentage of folks in each state who took advantage of the tax credit, we get radically different results.
Heres a look at the top three in terms of per capita participation in the tax credit
Nevada is in the number one position with more than 20 thousand claims out of a population of 2.6 million.
Utah is in the number two position with over 17 thousand claims out of a population of 2.7 million.
And Arizona is in the third position with over 38 thousand claims out of a population of 6.5 million.
Whats more, we find Alaska moving from near the bottom of the rankings to number 26 above California! And Wyoming, the least populated state in the U.S., moves to number 16. Thats just a bit behind Texas in terms of per capita tax payer participation.
Back to you, Jay
Jay: Thanks, Bryon. Thats it for This Month in Real Estate. Thank you for joining us.

Just steps from the surf on the white sand beach of Coronado, is one of our nation’s most treasured seaside resorts.
Veronica Hill of California Travel Tips travels to the gorgeous Hotel del in Coronado. Let’s take a 2-minute tour of this beautiful resort known as the Grand Lady by the Sea.
Built in 1887 along sandy shores of Coronado Beach, this 28-acre Queen Anne Revival Victorian Resort was one of the most elegant and modern resorts of its time — boasting telephones, electric lights, and a birdcage elevator that’s still in operation.
With its red turreted roofs, white clapboard design and magical spires, the Hotel Del looks a lot like Emerald City. In fact, Wizard of Oz author L. Frank Baum lived at the resort as he wrote the Oz series between 1904 and 1910.
Today, this legendary resort (where Marilyn Monroe filmed Some Like It Hot), is a bit of California paradise, complete with two fine dining restaurants, an on-site ice cream store, and oceanfront pool. For an added fee, you can even rent your own private cabana.
I loved the lobby library, where you can cozy up with an old book, and the downstairs museum, where I learned more about the history of the Hotel del Coronado and its reputation as one of California’s haunted hotels.
Room 3312, recently renamed 3327, is supposed to be haunted by the ghost of Kate Morgan. Room 3502 is also said to have spirits.
In 2008, Coronado Beach was named one of the Top 10 beaches in America. That same year, the Hotel del Coronado celebrated 120 years with more than $150 million in improvements, including a cluster of luxury oceanfront villas at Beach Village. Some even come with their own private swimming pools.
San Diego weather averages about 65 degrees in January to 77 in August, making it about the closest thing to perfect in America.
And true to the dream of its builders Elisha Babcock and Hampton Story, it still is the “talk of the Western World.”
I’m Veronica Hill and that’s you’re California Travel Tip.
